Offering a blend of education and entertainment, Dino Kingdom visitors will discover the amazing creatures both inside and out as they are brought to life in a new way.

An interactive app has been created for the Jurassic journey with content giving a unique insight into how dinosaurs lived millions of years ago.

As well as the natural outdoor setting, there are indoor activities including interactive features from designing a dinosaur to see it come to life in a virtual kingdom, or feeding the hungry beasts in a dinosaur keeper virtual reality experience.

Ian Xiang, event creative director, said: "We have a lot of dinosaurs of all sizes, along with digital content in the marquees.

"Kids can draw a dinosaur and we scan it and send it into the virtual world.

"We also have special lights for Halloween as it gets darker to make it a spooky trail too.”

There’s something to entertain everyone from fairground rides and fun dino performances to an excavation sand pit, a giant dinosaur skeleton head and a walk-through fossil tunnel.
